arbeit macht frei

The Libertines

Arbeit Macht Frei

Roll a gasper
The guard said he could stay alive
but he has to shovel and burn his people to die
and the gate read:
Arbeit Macht Frei

In her rollers
and a gasper
cleaning the steps in a mean street
where no policeman walks the beat
for her husband
(her old man)
he don't like blacks or queers
(yet he's proud he beat the nazis? - how queer...)
